Can you make someone understand your startup, believe the opportunity, and want to hear more in 3 minutes?

Applications are now open for Go Global World Pitch Bootcamp #21: Make Your Pitch Fundable!

This isn’t another webinar about pitch decks.

Apply here to pitch: https://forms.gle/wYZpR9fmobn7W6SE9

You’ll have 3 minutes to present your startup, followed by 5 minutes with experienced venture and startup experts who will challenge the story, assumptions, market, traction and GTM behind it.

And because you’ll also hear other founders pitch, you get something most fundraising advice can’t give you: a chance to see, in real time, what makes one startup immediately click and another one difficult to understand.

For this session, we’re joined by:

Andy Cwik, Managing Director at Solanus Capital Partners. Andrew is a serial entrepreneur and operator who now leads a $5M early-stage fund backing U.S. pre-seed and seed companies.

Inalcan Gulec, Senior Investment Associate at Eksim Ventures. Inalcan brings 15+ years of commercial experience across operating, venture and founder mentorship roles.

The goal is simple:
Come with the pitch you’re using today.

Leave knowing how to make your company easier to understand, your opportunity more convincing, and your next fundraising conversation stronger.

And there’s another opportunity.

🏆 The strongest pitch gets a priority slot at GGW Sharks, where the founder will pitch live in front of five investors.

We’re now selecting founders for the September 8 session.

You pitch your startup. The investor nods. Says "interesting."

Then nothing.

That is how most pitch events end. A handshake. A maybe. A silence that stretches until you stop checking your email.

GGW Sharks is not that.

The format is two minutes. No slides. You stand in front of five investors and explain what you are building.

Apply here to pitch: https://forms.gle/Gv3nQ8J3T6JNXxMn7

If the panel wants to continue the conversation, we make the intro happen. Not a forwarded email. Not "let me check." A direct warm introduction.

The judge panel:
• Bryce Gilleland, California Innovation Fund
• Dan Ellis, Sher Ventures
• Ketie Weiss, ff Venture Capital
• Alex Zhuravlev, Mento VC
• David Mandel, Emerging Ventures Capital

Not pitching? Come watch, network, and see how investors really evaluate deals.

You leave the meeting. They say "very interesting." You never hear back.

Most founders never find out what went wrong.

Your panel:
Alex Meredith - Product Growth and GTM Strategist, 15+ years across FinTech and AI
